No-logs auditDeloitte Lithuania 2025
Show audit details

Sixth no-logs assurance engagement, ISAE 3000 (Revised) framework. Assessment period Nov 10-Dec 12 2025: server infrastructure, configs, and deployment processes across standard VPN, Double VPN, obfuscated, and Onion Over VPN server types. Full technical report is not published publicly — only readable by logged-in Nord Account holders.

Cure53 2026
Show audit details

Independent security audit completed in 2026 (after OVPN's 2023 acquisition by Pango, now part of Point Wild) — Cure53 reported no critical issues, with only a few low-to-medium-severity findings around logging verbosity in debug builds, which OVPN removed from production before release. OVPN published both a summary and the raw vulnerability triage, plus a public remediation timeline — an unusually detailed level of disclosure. This followed a separately documented 2020 Swedish Patent and Market Court case in which movie-industry rights holders failed to prove OVPN retained any logs; the court ordered the plaintiffs to pay OVPN's legal fees (108,000 SEK, about $12,300). That case predates the Pango acquisition and reflects the company under its original Swedish ownership.
